Carlos Alcaraz seemed to injure himself while celebrating a goal on Saturday as Southampton beat Leicester 1-0.
The 20-year-old scored the only goal of the game with a composed finish after a good run on the counter-attack, but appeared to pick up a knock during a botched knee slide in celebration.
His left leg bent awkwardly under his body during the slide, and the midfielder was subbed off shortly after half-time following a period of uncertain movement.
Mohamed Elyounoussi came on for Alcaraz as the Saints held on for a potentially vital three points despite a multitude of chances for the visitors.
Jamie Redknapp urged caution from the youngster after the apparent injury, as he told Sky Sports: 'It looked like he did it in his celebration when he did his knee slide. You have to be so careful with these things, because they need him.
